Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2013011375A2] A method and an apparatus for counting MBMS services in a network architecture of a distributed MCE is provided. In the method, a mobility management entity sends at least: one MBMS service UE counting request message to at least one eNB which belongs to a service area and is served by the mobility management entity, wherein the at least one eNB integrates a multicast coordination entity function respectively; receives at least one MBMS service UE counting response message from the a! least one eNB, the at least one response message being used for feeding back to the mobility management entity respectively whether the MBMS service UE counting request message is correctly received: receives at least one MBMS service UE counting result report from at least one related eNB among the at least one eNB: determines whether to transmit at least: one MBMS service in a MBSFN mode ia a specific MBSFN, according to the at least one MBMS service UE counting result report; sends a MBMS service session start message or a MBMS service session end message to a corresponding eNB according to the determining result.
